This is my Sufjan-inspired pseudo-Christian indie-pop ballad.

I strummed so hard that I actually strummed my thumb-skin all over the guitar mid-song, which is why the strumming is a little jank at one point. Also, I'm still technically a novice.

Lyrics:

All night long

I sit and I wait for your voice

All night long

I wait for you lungs to empty

[Repeat]

What-Ho, Sonic Travelers!

This song is about Being Kind To Yourself. It is called, Be Kind To Yourself. It is dedicated to Cary, Leader of the Platinum Matrix Fan Club, and Andrew, who Knows Exactly Who He Is.

Lyrics:

Be kind to yourself

Be kind to yourself

'cause nobody's gonna do that for you

Prenez soin de vous

Prenez soin de vous

Parce qu'il y a personne (sauf moi) qui vont ça pour vous

I know that it's hard 

To get out of the shower

But the sun is shining

And your boyfriend wants to see your face

So let me take you to the water

Oh and we'll dance together

And then I'll braid your hair

And then we'll wash our shoes in the river

And if you still feel said 

Oh then I'll tell you the story

Of the last time I couldn't get up

And face the morning 

It was super shitty

'cause my friends wouldn't ring me

And my girlfriend left

And a robber robbed

And I lost my job

But it was only a dream

And I remembered

Be kind to yourself

Be kind to yourself

'cause nobody's gonna do that

For you.

Acoustic T-Rex practices "Down On My Knees," a traditional folk song.

I'm a little too emotionally close to this song to accurately express what it is about. It may not be my best work, but it is one of my most heartfelt.

Lyrics:

Oh, baby 

Why'd you have to go

Why'd you have to go away

Oh, I had that dream again

We lived in a snow globe

And you wanted to get out

Trace your fingers on the glass

Calling out to those who pass by

Without a sigh

Turning upside down your life

Stealing kisses from your wife 

But in the dream at least you stayed

Oh, baby

Why'd you have to go

Why'd you have to go away

Oh, I had that dream again

We were on a train

On a bridge on an island in a desert

It was all a mirage

Oh, I had that dream again

You left your toothbrush at my place

And you didn't mind

Trace your fingers on my skin

Feed me cinnamon and gin

Look your lovers in the eye

Do your reading in my bed

Eat your dinners here instead

of going back to your snow globe life

Oh, baby

Why'd you have to go

Why'd you have to go away

Oh, baby

Why'd you have to go

Why'd you have to go away?

ASAD,

Chloé

Here is a snippet of a new song that I have been making with my roommate and neighbor, both cherished new friends. I am advocating for the name "Acoustic T-Rex" for our ensemble, but the reception has been thus far mixed. More updates as the situation progresses.

I thought I couldn't really be an outsider folk-esque singer-songwriter without my take on the Biblical narrative of Samson and Delilah, so here it is, told from the perspective of a Fate.
